Family Pictures

When I take family pictures, I never expect to get everyone looking. This is sort of what I expect all of the pictures to turn out like:

When I was setting a date for family pictures, I asked Todd if he had any preferences, and he said, "Wait three years?" Even he was happy with how everything turned out, though.

It helps that we have really cute kids.

Sammy, 15 months:

Look at those eyes!

Benjamin, age 3.5:

We are all so serious here. I wonder how that happened.

The boys:

The girls:

One last picture of our family.

Jared asked for another picture by himself.

This turned into a hug attack by B.
